Figure 1. Stability of dextran-in-PEG emulsions by adding lysozyme in different aggregation stages.

(a–d) Graphical representation of lysozyme protein assemblies in different stages of their fibrillization process: monomers at pH=7 (a), monomers at pH=2 (b), prefibrillar aggregates (c) and mature fibrils (d). (e–h) The corresponding optical micrographs show the different stabilization properties of lysozyme aggregates in the indicated stages of fibrillization. All incubation times corresponding to specific panels. Scale bars, 50 μm.
